Monday Prep

Monday Meeting Prep Day

Prepare for a very short blog, as I have spent the day preparing for a meeting on Tuesday and have left no time to blog about the days activities, just enough time to write this brief note and then a few hours kip.

A Small Game Goal

My goal today was to get the makings of a very small game in place, which meant adding workable AI, physics, health, damage on both sides, a small level to combat within and so forth.

The good news is that I managed it, but I must stress the 'small' and it has also highlighted some more areas I need to look closer at as well. I added some nice touches though such as gun flash for the enemy and player, which really makes the action pop!

Signing Off

A more generous blog will follow on Tuesday with some shots. Most of the day will be 'meeting mode' which basically involves me talking for seven hours, so I won't be fit for much that evening, but I will certainly see if I can polish off the edges of what I have done today and show you some peeks.

It is also very likely priorities will be changed and tasks shifted around as a direct result of the meeting, so be prepared for anything in Tuesday's blog!

  4. If you're getting an abnormally high number of page visits from my IP, it's because I refresh the page every so often between midnight and 1am so I can get the next piece of FPSCR news as soon as possible.

    Either very sad or very committed.

  6. Lol, I probably refresh the page about 5-30 times per day depending on if there already is an update and whether it's my day off or not.

  9. I usually refresh about 20 times in the evening and lots of times around midnight in the UK which is when Lee usually updates the blog. I also refresh about 10 times per day on my phone at work for comments.

    Am really looking forward to the Tuesday blog and if Lee has a small game working I would love to see a video of this as screenshots can't really do gameplay justice.

    Only about 4-5 hours until we get to find out!!

  10. Haha lol I also refresh several times per day ;) I also have a separate clock set up in Windows to tell me Lee's current time so I can guesstimate when a new post will appear :P
